Could LLM Watermark Detection be Public?

This work quantifies whether a public detector would be an additional liability in a deployment setting at varying levels of access, and introduces a split-key public-private watermarking method that exposes one key through a public detector while keeping the other for full verification and forensics.

DVLA-RL++: Dual-Level Vision-Language Alignment with Reinforcement Learning Gating for Few-Shot Learning

Few-shot learning aims to recognize novel categories from limited labeled examples. Recent studies incorporate textual semantics to compensate for limited visual observations and improve class representations. However, high image-text agreement may reflect both intrinsic object properties and incidental context, making...

Differentiable Systematic Resampling for Variational Sequential Monte Carlo

Particle filters are a standard tool for nonlinear state estimation, but their resampling step is discrete, preventing gradient-based learning in variational sequential Monte Carlo. We introduce Differentiable Systematic Resampling (DSR), a temperature-controlled relaxation of systematic resampling, that preserves the...

Perception Test 2026: Challenge Summary and Extension to City-scale Audio-Visual Reasoning

Continuing the Perception Test challenge series, we organised the fourth edition as a workshop at the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 2026 in Malm\"o, Sweden. This edition focused on spatial intelligence and featured four different tracks: unified multiple-choice videoQA and grounded videoQA from the orig...

Diffusion Removes Langevin's Conditioning Dependence: A Sharp Gaussian Analysis

Despite their empirical success, why diffusion models overcome the bottlenecks of classical score-based samplers remains unclear. In this work, we leverage Gaussian distributions to isolate this phenomenon. We establish 2-Wasserstein convergence bounds for optimized hyperparameters, showing that diffusion processes ach...

Efficient and Generalizable Archetypal Analysis for Discrete Data

Archetypal Analysis (AA) represents observations as convex combinations of extremal data-driven profiles, yielding interpretable low-dimensional descriptions of complex datasets. Classical AA relies on a least-squares objective, which is poorly suited to discrete observations such as binary, count, and categorical data...

Ghost tasking for parametrized Gaussian Processes solving linear differential equations

Physics-informed machine learning has gained significant attention in recent years. In regimes of limited data, parametrized Gaussian processes have become popular. Existing approaches, however, often face limitations, such as requiring parametrizable (also called controllable) systems or a large number of output tasks...

Efficient quadratic entropy with distance sketches

We detail scalable methods for approximating the quadratic entropy $p^T d p$ for arbitrary distributions $p$ and common distances $d$ of negative type. We focus on the Euclidean and spherical geodesic cases, which both use random feature embeddings and projections to dramatically improve computational complexity within...

CAPABLE: Capability-Aware Policy Adaptation via Behavioral Latent Encoding

Vision-language-action (VLA) policies assume the embodiment on which they were trained and can fail when a joint fault changes how commanded actions are physically executed. Existing fault-recovery methods often require task-specific retraining, fault labels, explicit diagnosis, or privileged embodiment information. We...

Reliability-Aware Future Conditioning for Temporally Robust Robot Manipulation

A generated video of a task the robot is about to perform is useful guidance only if it depicts the phase the robot is actually in. We show that temporal misalignment can turn a task-consistent generated future into actively harmful guidance. On CALVIN, a five-frame early shift nearly erases the benefit of generated fu...

Score-Based Learning of Cluster DAGs from Interventions

COARSE is introduced, the first score-based method for this task: it keeps the two-phase structure but, under linear Gaussian assumptions, swaps the constraint-based edge phase for a score-based one, and proves that the procedure runs in polynomial time and, provided the variables affected by each intervention are corr...

TACROSS: An Efficient and Low-Cost Scalable Human Touch System Across Heterogeneous Tactile Sensors for Dexterous Robot Learning

Collecting tactile demonstrations on robots is costly and slow, motivating the use of lower-cost human tactile gloves for scalable data collection. However, human capacitive/piezoresistive gloves and robotic tactile sensors differ fundamentally in transduction principle, sensor layout, spatial resolution, and dynamic r...

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
